Phileas Fogg Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 He's off...Definitely. Back to London...Fulham Matt Smith deal or Brentford Will Grigg deal maybe? Hmm, had they stayed up I'd of certainly said Orient. Millwall? I wouldn't be surprised if any of Preston/Sheffield U/Swindon go after him if they stay down.

One BCFC Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 If its true and he is off lets not all be so gutted. He will go down in City folklore as a cult hero and its probably time as he cant get into the first team at League 1 level let alone Championship. We move on, with exciting times to come and remember JET for him being the character and a great Football player for this club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lack of Action Man Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 How SC can't see the value of him being in the squad is beyond me. But I equally can't criticise SC for delivering our best season in living memory. Cotts, just take a minute and think about this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree if this is how it has transpired - maybe Jay wants to leave to play first team football ever game, if so then that is very admirable.

Rule The Waves Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Be genuinely sad if JET is off - the Championship is a different style of play to L1 altogether and I think he is the type of player who would actually be better in a higher division. I'll maintain my faith in Cotts, but if you were to offer me q choice between JET & Agard starting the first game next season it would be JET every time for me.

formerly known as ivan Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 The way he came off today didn't suggest he wasn't going to be leaving. Would have thought it would have been a bit more emotional, took his time to take in the applause and had a few teammates around him. Said before he has won me over big time this season. Would like to see him stay so I guess we will await the official confirmation from the club. Isn't the released/declined contract list released not long after the end of the season?

Fordy62 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Bugger. I so wanted this to be a thread about him staying. Probably the most talented player I've seen at the gate. Good luck JET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex#40 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 I said when he went off "well that's not a goodbye is it" so although it looks highly likely from his tweet I hope not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraham Romanovich Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 It would be a real shame if he leaves and a sad indictment of football in this country, better to be an athlete than an unpredictable maverick I think his game would be better suited abroad and I hope he can make the most of his god given talent. Thanks for all the memories and if it is true good luck for the future you will always be welcomed back at Ashton Gate.

Youngish Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Not factually but I think he is a liablity, I don't doubt his ability; attitude is a different story.. There's no reason why he cannot run his socks off every game like Agard and wilbraham do and that's the gap between him and them... He's to arrogant in his ability to be a complete success in a workman like team such as this one. I don't think people have still realised how vital Agard and wilbrahams working back has been to our success.. Whilst we've mostly been fine with jet not working back this season, next season we won't be able to afford to do tjay Couldn't disagree more. There is one, huge reason why he can't run his socks off like those two: his body shape. He's just not built for distance running. He's working far harder this season (harder than people realise - if you ever get the chance again, actually watch him, he works harder than you think) because Cotterill has got him fitter. Surely that proves it's not an effort issue, but a fitness one? Not suggesting he's not fit enough, just that his body is a limiting factor in his fitness. I would love to see how many calories he burns off per game compared to Agard. Would bet it's mighty close. Farewell, JET, and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have actually watched him closely numerous times, he's definitely improved his work rate but I can't agree about the body type, I'm not expecting him to run as quick or as much as Agard but I want to see the same level of effort..

mcheneyred Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Hilarious to watch the change of mind on the substitution. Burns about to go on after JET loses ball in midfield. Next thing his amazing play that we all dream of puts the ball on the plate for a goal and then scores himself soon after. A truly great player that we are so grateful to see, worth the admission money alone, even in a really cohesive team he contributes and adds something outstanding. Setting up goals and scoring when needed. Keeping the crowd on the edge of their seats with his quality and vision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciderbeans Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Mad to think he would turn down a contract at a club he loves with players he loves having just won the league and would be playing championship next season. Also has a house in Bristol now. Surely it was a farewell to the ones leaving like tavernier who has been a great friend to him since he joined?

mcheneyred Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 And end up being another Bolasie that we let go. A truly outstanding player, you can also see the effect that he has had on younger players such as Bryan in terms of technique. The substitution may have been inevitable interns of pre planning but looked laughably absurd with JETs immediate contribution, prompting a quick bactrack imploring Burns to put his tracksuit on.

Yes, possibly and others suggesting he could be referring to the summer break also have a point but let's be honest. We're clutching at straws aren't we? Whether he's turned down a contract or been released his tweet VERY strongly suggests he's off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Jordan Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 People go on about bringing Matt Smith in, which would be great, but you have to remember how important JET was in helping Matt Smith get the amount of goals he did.
